Another amazing adventure with Beobrand

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely, I already have to family and friends! They love them! and Matthew along with one of the greatest narrator, Barnaby, take a bow guys!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Blood and Blade?

There were many, the main one that really touched my heart was the decision Beobrand to make about the queen and her love for another, .also Basses (i'm sure is misspelled) , sorry I Matthew.. I just thought this book was so much better with the storyline and the characters! I started listening and I had to make myself take a break! Wow, that is what tou call A Great Nove!. Congrat's Matthew and Barnaby, Fantastic!

Have you listened to any of Barnaby Edwards’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Barnaby Edward's is the epitome of a great Narrator, he is always great!

If you could take any character from Blood and Blade out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Beobrand and Achinin (probably spelled wrong)

Any additional comments?

Matthew I am going to use a quote of George Patton to Rummel back in 1944 "Quote" Rummel you Magnificent Bastard I read your book! C'mon that is a big compliment, both Patton and Rummel, great Leaders of opposing counties in World War 2 Keep it up ! great job! Now on to the next adventure!

Best One Yet!

The story keeps getting better with every book! I could not stop listening and think I finished in a day. I love the historical notes at the end and doing a little research after about the actual historical figures included in the story.

Solid

A good, quality historical fiction armed with a shield of violence, a sword of death and clad in chain mail of sex.

another entertaining adventure through time

I am a fan of Harffy and I appreciate his love of history. one criticism I have is he puts refined language into the mouth of his hero in such a way I find unbelievable for the son of a churl.

Great story

Well read and well written. If you like Bernard then this is a perfect transition
